Par PURCELL HENRY. This delightful string trio is straightforward technically, and will be fun to play for student and amateur alike. The ?Sonatas of III Parts by Henry Purcell? were first published in 1683. A facsimile of the first edition was published in 1975. This arrangement follows the facsimile faithfully, simply writing out the first violin and cello parts of the trio sonata, with the second violin part transposed down an octave in places to suit the viola. This edition follows Purcell's original text without the dynamics and bowing that later editors added. Scholars generally agree that in Purcell's time players decided themselves how to make the music expressive by using bowing and dynamics according to their tastes. / Date parution : 2022-03-16/ Répertoire / Violon, Alto ou Violon et Violoncelle

Henry Purcell (1659-1695) held numerous appointments at the Royal Court and Westminster Abbey and is considered by many to be the greatest ever English-born composer. His prolific work covered all fields: orchestral ecclesiastical operatic theatrical incidental and chamber music were all enriched by his output. Abdelazer also known as The Moor's Revenge was a 1676 play. Purcell later composed incidental music for a revival of it in the 1690s. He wrote ten movements in total the most famous of which was later used as the theme for Britten's Young Person's Guide to the Orchestra. Four of these have beenarranged here for Organ by Desmond Ratcliffe.
